Adaptations of fairy tales

Adaptations of fairy tales involve reworking traditional stories into new forms, such as films, books, or plays, while retaining key themes and characters. These adaptations may update settings, modify plot details, or develop characters to appeal to different audiences or contemporary values. The core elements—like morals, symbolism, and storytelling style—are preserved or reinterpreted, allowing the stories to resonate in new cultural contexts. This process keeps fairy tales relevant, engaging, and accessible, while providing fresh perspectives and creative reinterpretations of classic narratives.
